“I Was Nice AF!”: 41YO Dwyane Wade Admits Showing Mercy After Startling Throwback That Could Scare Others

During his long decorated career, Dwyane Wade served several unforgettable moments. Alongside Shaquille O’Neal, he led the Miami Heat to the championship in 2006 as a 24-year-old. Throughout that postseason, he remarkably dominated every game he appeared in. As an old clip from his first playoff game against the Chicago Bulls from 2006 resurfaced, the Flash had an amusing reaction to it.

His skills flourished and reached their peak during the 2006 postseason as he averaged 28.4 points per game in the playoffs. He successfully led the Miami Heat through the Eastern Conference Finals against the Detroit Pistons with his super athleticism and brilliance. And he went a step further in the Finals as he became the 5th youngest Finals MVP at the time.
